The Oselvar workshop is an approved training establishment for apprentices in the wooden boat building trade.
In the fall of 2023, we have two apprentices at Oselvarverkstaden and we have trained more than ten apprentices in the wooden boatbuilding trade since the start.
Here is a small extract from the training plan:
The wooden boat builder produces, repairs, maintains and restores hulls, superstructures, rigging, furnishings and installations. Central work tasks include
- use of the different materials utilised in traditional boat building
- drying processes and processing
- mechanical joining methods, gluing and surface treatment
- aesthetics, design and construction with drawing and visualisation
- quality assurance and HSE
The skilled worker must, in collaboration with others and independently, be able to plan, carry out, document and assess their work in such a way that it can also lead to innovation and product development.
